16 October 2007 - I quickly wrote this article a couple years ago. Reading some of it, I can tell this article could use some editing to improve the readability. If anyone wants to improve it, please do! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.192.208.103 (talk) 15:45, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
I just wanted to add a note to this entry that both Cormack McCarthy's No Country for Old Men and Phillip Roth's The Dying Animal derive their titles from this poem. I didn't know how to format it though, I'll let someone else do that, maybe? Also, what is this (DISCovering) business?
Gnomon says: This poem is still under copyright in Europe. Is it OK to reproduce it here?
The servers are in Florida, so it's probably fine.
I've always applied a different understanding to the lines >Nor is there singing school but studying >Monuments of its own magnificence; taking it to be derrogatory---any school is so focused on its past accomplishments that it is of no use to the poet. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.104.27.5 (talk) 17:34, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
